Description
The Fitzgerald is a 470mm outdoor wall lantern built around an aluminium frame with a textured black finish, burnished bronze detailing, and clear seeded glass panels on all four sides. Two E14 candle bulbs sit inside the lantern chamber behind the glass, casting light through the seeded texture to create a diffused glow with subtle shadow patterns on surrounding walls.
Designed for porches, front doorways, and covered patio walls, the Fitzgerald carries an IP44 rating for protection against splashing water from any direction, making it suitable for locations under eaves, canopies or overhangs. The 192mm projection from the wall and 190mm width mean the lantern suits doorways and porch areas where a visible presence is wanted without overwhelming the space. The top-mounted arm bracket secures the lantern to the wall via a backplate that sits flush against brickwork or rendered exteriors.
The textured black finish on the aluminium frame contrasts with the burnished bronze metalwork running vertically down each corner of the lantern, creating a dual-tone aesthetic that pairs with both traditional brick exteriors and contemporary rendered facades. The seeded glass panels trap small air bubbles within the glass during manufacture, giving each panel a slightly different bubble pattern that shows when the bulbs are lit. The combined aluminium and brass construction resists corrosion in UK coastal and urban environments, and the IP44 rating allows the fitting to be hosed down during exterior cleaning without damage to the internals.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does it take?
The Fitzgerald takes two E14 small Edison screw bulbs up to 40W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with 4-6W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) for outdoor ambience.
Can it be used in fully exposed locations?
The IP44 rating protects against splashing water from any direction, making it suitable for locations under eaves, canopies or covered porches. It is not rated for fully exposed positions where heavy rain falls directly onto the top of the fitting.
What's the difference between the black and bronze finishes?
The main aluminium frame is finished in textured black. The vertical corner brackets running down each edge of the lantern are finished in burnished bronze, creating a dual-tone contrast. This is a single-finish variant, not a choice between two separate finishes.
How is it mounted?
The lantern mounts via a top-arm bracket that fixes to a backplate screwed to the wall. The backplate sits flush against brick, stone or rendered exteriors, with the cable entering through a knock-out hole in the backplate. Installation requires basic outdoor wiring to a suitable IP-rated junction box or external lighting circuit.
